By serving the liquid at 190+ degrees fahrenheit, a temperature at which dermal tissue will suffer third-degree burns (which is not defined as charring, but rather as a burn affecting all of the layers of the skin, including the deep dermal tissue, and sometimes burning into subcutaneous layers of fat, muscle, and even bone) in less than 10 seconds of direct contact.
Charring is not, despite Wikipedia's insistence, the sole arbiter of burn degree; depth of burn is the arbiter generally used.
The last time I used a phone booth for a LD call (cell was out of juice) was a couple weeks ago. You know what I did? "Insert coins and dial". The phone will have a dialing fee listed on it, and will then tell you (as the conversation progresses) when you need to add coins, and how many coins you need to add.
If you're using a prepaid card, you call the 800 number for that card, dial your code, and then the number. Credit card? Dial 0 (operator), or the number of a LD company you want to use, and tell them to place a credit call. None of these strike me as difficult.
I admit that we don't have card readers in our phones, but then, I don't think its that hard to dial a number and then punch in the proper code to place a call. Every phone I ever recall seeing has exactly how to do each of these listed on the placard, too.
Kinda a moot point, anyway, considering the phone booth is a dying breed.
Not *really* (and we're pretty much down to 2 infrastructures now, TDMA is just about dead and buried).
See, infrastructure really needs to be measured on a user-area context; yes, covering the area multiple times costs more, but covering twice as many users on the same infrastructure costs more too. Single infrastructure is cheaper, but by no means is the American solution 2 or 3 times as expensive - its a lot closer to 1.3-1.4x as expensive (for the current 2-standard situation).
GSM != TDMA. GSM is a particular standard; it happens to use TDMA in the current generation, and will use CDMA in the next. The benefit is in the standardization, not in the particular multiplexing method used.
Also I nowhere found placing a long-distance call that complicated than in the US.
If you had problems using 10 digit dialing, I severely worry about you.
Placing a long distance call in the US is difficult? 1, plus the area code, plus the exchange, plus the number. Hell, many of us use 10 digit dialing for local calls as well. What's wrong in your brain that placing a long-distance call in the US is difficult?
This is why I have a shell account on a server that lets me run gallery. Best of both worlds - full control over my site, while not having it do anything to my connection.
Seriously, I think you have me pegged as thinking that it should be Apple's responsibility to find these leaks without aid. I'm on Apple's side in this; they're in the right. I find it funny that the law works so differently in trade secrets and in bankruptcy, that's all.
I was talking about bankruptcy. Defaulting on a loan without declaring bankruptcy is just fucking dumb, and anyone who does it should be locked up next to people dumb enough to leak NDA-embargoed information to the press.
Proprietary competition to Photoshop pretty much doesn't exist. Not in that class, at least. Illustrator, I guess it has some competition. XPress, for some applications. FreeHand, for others.
Orion, on the other hand, has a ton of competition. Everything from Reaktor to MAX/MSP Reason to Fruityloops to Live to Cubase to Sonar to... you get the picture, twit?
PT competes in the same space as Orion, to a certain extent, though more the sequencing portion than the synthesis. More correctly, you'd compare it to Cubase, Sonar, that sort of thing.
Opensource makes some very nice applications. I use Firefox every day. I use putty, too. I love pine. But for real, don't pretend it provides a usable alternative for everything. Some of us like to actually get our work done.
Of course. What use is software that needs a serial number to start up, can't be used on more than 1 computer, and can't be modified?
More use than hypothetical open source software that either doesn't exist or doesn't work.
Show me the open source Photoshop? No, the fucking GIMP does not count. Illustrator? Logic? Orion? ProTools? Audition? Until I see something at that level of utility and quality come out of OSS, FUCK OFF with your GPL zealotry.
Actually, after checking, you won't be charged for receiving in good faith - however, you can (and will) be charged if a "reasonable and prudent person" would have had suspicions regarding the items being stolen.
That said, if you receive in good faith and don't give up the name of the upstream, I suspect you become liable for obstruction of justice. And you're going to lose the goods without recompense whether or not you roll, so you might as well roll!
However, when an individual goes bankrupt, the bank (usually) doesn't go after them. This is because they are a) not criminal and b) not worth it for the return.
They're called properly placed weights. Try it some time - balance something in unstable equilibrium with the weight at the top side, then perturb it uphill, and voila, you'll get a roll uphill.
That's what's known as "the cost of doing business".
Seriously. People default on their loans. Banks know approximately how often this happens, and build it into their rate structures so that they make money anyway. Just like retail builds in a "shrinkage" factor to account for shoplifting, and any smart engineer builds in an "annoying fucking marketing people" factor to account for all the useless shit they will inevitably be asked to add.
Considering the action against these two was being brought under UTSA, I think that liability has everything to do with it. Apple is subpoenaing the journalists, using UTSA as the legal cause of action to force them to reveal their source. Since UTSA's provision is that revealing trade secrets is actionable, they are in fact liable, and Apple is using that liability to force them to talk.
This is true; if a trade secret is revealed, if the company loses its secrecy through negligence it can become unprotected.
However, even if the status as a trade secret is lost, if it is lost through an actionable means, the fact that it is no longer secret is no bar to prosecution of the person responsible for the loss of that status.
"Tainted" in the legal sense. Having received that information makes you subject to action under UTSA, specifically the part that says "acquisition of a trade secret of another by a person who knows or has reason to know that the trade secret was acquired by improper means; or (ii) disclosure or use of a trade secret of another without express or implied consent by a person who (A) used improper means to acquire knowledge of the trade secret; or (B) at the time of disclosure or use knew or had reason to know that his knowledge of the trade secret was (I) derived from or through a person who has utilized improper means to acquire it; (II) acquired under circumstances giving rise to a duty to maintain its secrecy or limit its use; or (III) derived from or through a person who owed a duty to the person seeking relief to maintain its secrecy or limit its use; or (C) before a material change of his position, knew or had reason to know that it was a trade secret and that knowledge of it had been acquired by accident or mistake."
Apple can, in fact, seek injunction and relief against those in breach of UTSA. Yes, they could seek economic damages against Think Secret, legally, in the amount of both their economic loss and TS's economic gain from the breach. That they're only seeking information reflects pretty well on Apple, what with the fact that I doubt they'd lose a request to receive all advertising revenue TS took in during the period surrounding the information at question's initial posting.
Sorry, but the law remains the law, and you remain wrong.
So if you sign a contract for a loan repayment and then fail to make payments, it's the bank's fault for not policing their borrowers better?
Ironically, yes, it is. If a bank fails to do due diligence on a borrower, they're required to absorb the cost of a bankruptcy on the part of the borrower.
Actually, not always. It depends on the quantities you're comparing; 10 dB can be either 10 times the logarithmic value (sound power quantities) or 20 times the value (SPL quantities). Further, when comparing to a reference intensity, the 20 factor is usually used, such that sound levels are nearly *always* given using a 20 factor to a reference. The 10 factor is rarely used, honestly, and for quantities measured in weighted SPL (like, for example, dBA) the 20 factor is used. If the 20 factor is used, 10 dB equals roughly 3.2 times the energy.
